My favorite C60 products for Keto & IF lifestyles include C60 Purple Power in Organic MCT Coconut Oil (can add this to your coffee) and their delicious Sugar-Free C60 Gummies (made with allulose and monk fruit)!

Intermittent fasting, extended fasting, the top fasting myths, and the history and truths of fasting! Dr. Jockers is back with his favorite subject, and this time he's in conversation with Ben Azadi.

 

Ben is the author of four bestselling books, including 'Keto Flex (link below) and he has been the go-to source for intermittent fasting and the ketogenic diet. He is also the host of the Keto Camp podcast and boasts a huge online following. 

 

Starting with an appreciation of our body's innate intelligence that kicks into gear when we start to fast, Ben and Dr. Jockers speak enthusiastically about autophagy as they debunk fasting myths. Learn about the different fasting strategies men and women should embrace, and how to challenge your body's metabolic system in a healthy way. 

 

Ben and Dr. Jockers also cover some of the mistakes people make when they're just starting out on their journey, so there's great advice to be had there too if you're new to intermittent fasting yourself! Not to mention understanding a keto diet to get 'fat adapted'.

 

Please join us and please share this episode with someone who you think could derive benefit from this impactful content on an ancient remedy to heal our bodies that is enjoying renewed airtime as people like Ben and Dr. Jockers speak to the restorative power of fasting.

 

Fasting is like a major reset button. You eliminate the interference. You allow your digestive system to take a break."

Hello and welcome to the Dr. Jockers functional nutrition podcast, the show designed to give you

0:08.0

science-based solutions to improve your health and life. I'm Dr. David Jockers, doctor of natural

0:14.5

medicine, and creator of Dr.jockers.com, and I'm the host of this podcast. I'm here to tell you that your body was

0:22.5

created to heal itself. And on this show, we focus on strategies you can apply today to heal

0:28.4

and function at your best. Thanks for spending time with me and let's go into the show.

0:37.3

So this podcast is sponsored by our friends over at Paleo Valley, and I wanted to tell

0:42.3

you about their grass-fed organ complex, which is like a supercharged multivitamin

0:47.8

that allows you to get a full spectrum of traditional superfoods loaded with nutrients

Most other similar products only contain one. It's usually liver and it's spray dried at high temperatures. The high

1:17.9

temperatures damage the vital nutrients. You see, the ideal way to maintain the fragile nutrients

1:23.5

and enzymes that are found in organ meats is to eat them raw. Again, most of us are not going to

1:29.2

eat raw liver. So instead, Paleo Valley gently freeze, dries the organs in order to preserve

1:35.8

as many of these nutrients as possible. You see, liver was coveted by our ancestors. When they

1:41.8

killed an animal, they would go right for the liver or the

1:44.6

heart first. Liver is considered the most nutrient-dense food on the planet. It's full of B vitamins,

1:50.5

vitamin A and minerals. You have heart. Again, heart was coveted as well. It's super rich in

1:56.9

co-enzyme Q10, which is so important for great energy and mental clarity. And then you also
